Ms. O'Leary's the only injured student who's been identified in public.
I guess if anyone knows anything else they should keep it confidential...we still don't want to spread news that might not be true.
Hopefully the doctor is right and all the injured are going to pull through.

Hopefully the doctor is right and all the injured are going to pull through. I think this is a HIPAA thing. No names other than Ms Rett have been released by hospital, authorities,or school Ms O'Leary was identified because someone who knows the family organized a prayer service which was public Coach Diggins name was released because the channel 5 reporter who went down happened to be on the same flight to Florida as Coach Diggins' family and they spoke.

I am beyond sad. These stories tell us that despite what some posters here have said, the quality of the students at Holy Cross has not diminished over the years. Grace Rett was obviously aptly named by her parents, as she truly had "grace." May she rest in peace and, as her sister said, it is a relief to know that she was not in pain and died instantly. She is with God now. And may her teammates recover quickly with the knowledge that Grace will be watching over them.

Given the fact that she lost her life representing Holy Cross, and that she set a World Record wearing her purple and white, I would propose that Grace Rett be inducted into the Holy Cross Varsity Club Hall of Fame.

There will certainly be a shell named in her memory.

There will certainly be a shell named in her memory. I agree. And I think that the rowing tank 'room' at Luth should be named for her.

Pick one. You don't want to "water down" the honor...and be sure the naming is done with appropriate ceremony and family inclusion.

Some of the comments absolutely suck, however. Guess I shouldn't read them.

Arrangements have been made for Grace Rett. Calling hours are Tuesday, January 21, 2020, from 2 - 7pm at St. Mary's Church in Uxbridge, MA. Her funeral will be on Wednesday, January 22, 2020 at 10:00am, St. Mary's Church. The pastor of St. Mary's is Fr. Nicholas Desimone, Holy Cross, class of 2004. The following is the link to her obituary in today's Worcester Telegram. What a beautiful tribute to her short lived life! Grace accomplished so much, way more than most could ever dream of in a longer life. She was truly a remarkable young woman and a wonderful role model for all. May God Bless her, her family and the entire Holy Cross community and may she rest in peace! And please continue to pray for those members of the team that remain hospitalized. www.legacy.com/obituaries/telegram/obituary.aspx?n=grace-rett&pid=195092340
